The Royal York is a 12-story, 494-unit luxury development that sprouted in the 1950s near Rockefeller University and the New York Presbyterian-Cornell Medical Center. “Our familiarity with the building and its finances enabled us to implement a tailored solution to reduce debt service by refinancing at an opportune time in the market and recapitalizing debt for future capital improvements,” Mr. Lieberman said in a statement.
